问题 PASSAGE THREE
What does "slam the brakes on this plan" in the last paragraph mean?

选项

答案The self-driving beta test should be halted．

解析根据题干定位至文章最后一段。从字面意义判断，“slam the brakes”的意思是“踩刹车”，从上下文来看，作者在第十三段介绍了匹兹堡市长是支持优步的道路测试的，而最后一段第一句是一个转折句，说明其后的观点应该与之相反，由此可以判断，这句话的意思是这一测试应该被叫停，故答案为“The self-driving beta test should be halted．”。
